The Hotshot by Piper Rayne is now live!
Release date: February 17, 2026
Raising my cousin's three kids wasn't in my five-year plan.
Actually, it wasn't in any plan.
One minute I'm a single labor-and-delivery nurse living a quiet life, and the next I'm navigating guardianship hearings, meltdowns, and homework I'm pretty sure requires a math degree.
Enter Hayes Carlisle.
My best friend's older brother.
Chicago Colts' newest catcher.
And the man I once kissed and immediately pretended I didn't.
So, when the custody battle I've been dreading becomes a reality, I shouldn't be surprised that Hayes swoops in with a wild idea—a fake relationship. According to him, pretending we're together will polish his image and prove to the court I'm not taking on an instant family alone.
But pretending to be Hayes' girlfriend is a terrible idea.
Because he remembers how to make me laugh.
Because he looks at me like our kiss wasn't a one-time mistake.
Because the kids start asking him to read bedtime stories.
Because my heart starts wanting things my life doesn't have room for.
I can manage the chaos. I can fight for these kids.
But pretending not to fall for Hayes Carlisle?
That might be the one thing I can't do.

4.5 Hotshot Stars
I have been looking forward to this series as soon as we got a glimpse of it in Piper Rayne's final book of THE NEST SERIES, MR. CHARMING, and I am thrilled that we finally have it in our hands.
Hayes Carlisle has just been traded to the Chicago Colts. It's perfect timing because Leighton Sinclair's, his sister's BFF, life has just taken a hit that she never saw coming. Hayes is the perfect person to help her when she steps up to the plate and takes custody of the three children her cousin left behind when she and her husband died while on vacation, just as requested in their will.
I enjoyed watching Hayes and Leighton navigate their attraction while trying to keep things as normal as possible for the children. From playing catch in the backyard to doing the National Food Day theme, working at the hospital, having away games, uncovering things you wish you hadn't, and discovering things you're glad you did, The Hotshot has it all covered, the ups and the downs, it's a roller coaster ride I recommend you take, you'll enjoy the ride, even when your at the tippy top and then feel like you're free falling into a bottomless pit don't worry you'll hit a curve ball and be on the road home again.
The full-cast narration of this book and the books that follow in the series is amazing. JF Harding & CJ Bloom are the main characters in this book, Hayes and Leighton. Teddy Hamilton, Sean Masters, Connor Crais, Erin Mallon, Willa Jaymes, Meg Sylvan & Austin Stone make up the rest of the cast. I don't know about you, but I think this cast is amazing. I have listened to each of them before in duets and in other full-cast ensembles, and I love the way this cast just fits together. They're perfect.
I recommend this book to readers who enjoy spicy contemporary romance, siblings' best-friend romance, fake-relationship romance, friends-to-lovers romance, found-family romance, or sports (baseball) romance.
Happy Reading or Listening!!!
